본 연구는 인천시에 소재한 초·중·고등학교의 야간 조명환경(교실, 과학실, 실험실)을 조사하기 위하여 개교된지 10년이내, 20년, 30년 경과 등으로 나누어 각 4개 학교 이상을 추출하여 조도를 측정, 분석하였다. 교실 평균조도는 235.5[lx](고등학교 ; 260[lx], 중학교; 208[lx], 초등학교 ; 203[lx]), 과학실과 실험실의 경우에는 233.7[lx](고등학교 ; 248.8[lx], 중학교; 216.4[lx], 초등학교 ; 207.8[lx])로서 양적인 면에서는 매우 향상되었으나, 균제도(평균값이 교실은 0.95, 과학실이나 실험실은 1.08)에 있어서는 권장값을 매우 초과하고 있으며, 조도구배에서도 최대조도와 최소조도의 비(교실;7.9, 과학실이나 실험실;6.8)가 크게 나타나며, 건축된지 오래된 학교일수록 크게 나타나 조도의 질적인 개선을 위한 많은 노력이 필요한 것으로 나타났다.
In this paper, the illuminance of elementary, junior, and senior high school in Inchon was measured and analyzed to investigate their night illuminating circumstances(classrooms, science rooms, and laboratories). More than four schools were selected based on the years elapsed(l0, 20, and 30 years, etc) since the opening of the schools. It was shown that the average illuminance for the classroom and that for science room and laboratory have been improved significantly such that the former was 235.6[lx] (260[lx] for senior high school, 208[lx] for junior high school, 203[lx]) for elementary school) and the latter was 233.7[lx](248.8[lx] for senior high school, 216.4[lx] for junior high school, 207.8[lx] for elementary school). The uniformity of the illuminance was exceedingly worse than the recommended one(the average value for the classroom and that for sciense room and laboratory were 0.95 and 1.08, respectively). It was found that the maximum to minimum illuminance ratio with respect to illumination derivative(7.9 for classroom, 6.8 for scienceroom or laboratory) was very high for most school buildings and was much higher for the old ones. From the measured results, it was shown that the illuminance for the school buildings needs to be improved with regard to quality.
